Neb., July C, The state central committee met as per cull ut the Lindell, Thursday even lug and accepted the resignation of Chuirmau H. F. Lehr, of Albion. I Members of the committee expressed regret that Mr. Lehr had decided to step down and out, but all realized the circumstances which prevented him from continuing in the harness. H. C. Burgess, of Lincoln, was an. nounced as the unanimous choice of the candidates and tbe committee quickly and cheerfully approved the selection. In responce to calls Mr. Burgess addressed the committee, stutlng that he had been a working republican since he bad been old enouKh to cast a ballot, that ha hud appreciated the confidence which had ! Rre to been expressed, and that he work for the election of every candi date on the state ticket and believed th it upsweeping vi tory could be won. The new chairman was one of the most influential nlembers of the lost House, was a hard and effective worker throughout the session, and had a hand in the construction and passage of many of tbe wise and wholesome laws which were enacted. Mr. Burgess possesses tact, force and excutlve ability, as a traveliug man bos met thousands of men iu all parts of tbe state who call blm friend. The committee passed a resolution authorizing tbe executive committee to fix the salaries of the officers and regular employes and provide a system of audit and accounts. Chairman Burgess will name the executive com mittee some day next week. Tbe chairman and treasurer will imme diately take up the matter of location and the headquarters will be moved to Omaha as soon as accomodations can secured. .

The fact that has consistently supported tbe re publican candidates and policies in nation, state county and city since '90 and that previous to that tlmo bis illustrious father, the late J. Sterling Morton openly annouueed that ''Paul is ft republican, tariff foolishness and all," the fact that two newspapers owned and controlled by tht, brothers have been outspokenly republican ever since they passed Into the hands of the Mor on brothers upon the death of their father, and tbe still more elo vuent fact that Mr. Morton was chosen as an alternate delegate from Illinois to tbe republican national convention ought to be accepted as convincing proof of his loyalty to the party. If a man votes the ticket year after year, talks for it and takes part in tho party councils the ordinary man is at loss to know what more he can do to show his colors. All of this is disputed, and Mr. Morton is referred to as a "two-weeks-old repub lean" by conscience less members of tho opposition who desire to detract from the natural gratification of Nebraska republicans upon the selection of a son of Nebras ka to 1111 one of the most important offices at Washington.

A TEST OF FLOUR. It Is !! aa Ia-artaat ETat la the Blar Mllla. Tbe letters XXXX which decorate our flour bags are a source of mystery to the average housewife, but get there very naturally. In the largest flour mills several tests are given all flour sent out, but the final test Is the bak ing trial. In a kitchen attached to tho flour mills, which is resplendent with shining pans, electric ovens and white cooling boards, there ure loaves of bread made dally from tho different sumples of flour which have Just been ground. Cooks are kept tho year round for this purpose, for as many as sixty loaves nre mado dally by 0110 mill ulone. Exactly at 3 o'clock ln the afternoon, nfter the broad is done, the head mill ers file into the kitchen and cut und In spect tho different .loaves. No mnn knows which flour has como from his mill, so tbe test 1h an Impartial one. A vote is taken on tbe best loaf, and the flour from which that was mado is marked wjtu the mysterious X'b. So irreat has this business of testing flour become that ono great mill has testing J rooms to which samples of grain are sent from all over the Lnlted States and Canada. These samples are .made into bread after going through a minia ture flour mill. After tho bread has been made tho package of grain is-sent back to tho miller who shipped it with full directions how to murk his flour, whether best or second best the tree is generally hanars 1 high or more and ties a large1 crass round the trunk.
